The 111 Best Albums of 2006 (as voted on by you):


So after weeks of collecting votes from friends, enemies and you, my faithful readers...I have tallied the 111 top vote getters for albums released in 2006. A very surprising list: Thom Yorke proves he doesn't need a band. TV on the Radio, Decembrists, and Hold Steady prove that they are the real deal. Yo La Tengo, Sonic Youth, and Tool show that age means nothing. Arctic Monkeys and Band Horses are the best of the freshman. And, Bob Dylan confirms that he still one of the greatest of all time.
